The SBS entertainment show 'My Little Old Boy', which aired on the 14th, ranked first in weekly entertainment, recording a viewership rating of 4.1% in 2049 and 11.6% among households in the metropolitan area. The viewership rating per minute rose to a peak of 16.3%.
Continuing from last week, actress Ha Ji-won served as a special MC this week. In response to MC Seo Jang-hoon's question about whether it is true that people dream of escaping to space when the earth is stuffy, Ha Ji-won said, "I have been a space fanatic since I was young. “When I’m in a good mood after having a drink, I tell people I’m comfortable with, ‘I’m actually from another planet,’” he revealed, confusing all of the Mother Avengers.
Ha Ji-won then said, “I don’t look at recipes when I cook.” Everyone was shocked when dishes with unusual recipes, such as rosemary ramen, ice cream bibimbap, and rice rolled in olive oil, were introduced. When Seo Jang-hoon said, “If I hadn’t become a famous actor, I would have appeared in ‘Oh My God, This Happened,’” Ha Ji-won responded by asking, “Oh, is that that bad?”, causing laughter.
In response to Seo Jang-hoon's question, "Wouldn't it be a hindrance to immersion if the male lead dies," referring to the jinx of the drama's co-star always dying, Ha Ji-won responded, "I tend to be completely immersed in my role, so once I fainted first during a scene where my co-star dies." He surprised everyone by revealing this.
Kim Hee-chul and Eun Ji-won, two of the leading gamers in the entertainment industry, have come together. The two visited a game shop, a mecca for game enthusiasts, full of classic games. Eun Ji-won, who was watching nostalgic games, recalled, “When I was young, there was no game console at home, so I was resentful, and when I became an adult, I played all of them when I was making money.” Eun Ji-won burst into laughter at the sight of Eun Ji-won running away, disgusted by Heechul's taste for games with pretty girls. All of the Movengers could not keep their mouths shut at the sight of the two people unhesitatingly putting in a game worth hundreds of thousands of won. The total price of the games the two played was 2.38 million won. The two agreed that the person who lost the game would pay the price, which was too much to be a memory price. The Mother Avengers couldn't help but admire the sight of the two people using their dazzling hands and techniques without hesitation, saying, "They're just players."
When a war of words broke out between Jiwon and Heechul over who is better at basketball between Slam Dunk characters Chae Chi-su and Seo Jang-hoon, Seo Jang-hoon said, “I’m not that level of player. “You’re comparing me to the skills of kids in high school,” he said, showing genuine anger.
Eun Ji-won said, “I took a two-year break from broadcasting to play games. “I don’t want people I play games with to have their plans canceled due to irregular schedules,” he said, shocking everyone. Seo Jang-hoon said, “Eun Ji-won is truly a representative hate bird.”
Kim Jong-kook started the 'New Year's Day' exercise with Australian Tarzan and Ma Seon-ho, who appeared on 'Physical 100', from the first day of the new year. Jong-kook's non-stop progress made even the younger athletes exhausted and exhausted, and Jong-kook's mother, seeing this, told Hee-cheol's mother, "It's better to be addicted to games," making the studio burst into laughter. Next, three people blindfolded and challenged themselves to guess the weight of dumbbells. Jongkook guessed the dumbbell weight in succession and received applause from everyone, but only Jongkook's mother said, "I can't clap," causing laughter.
Kim Jun-ho and Lee Dong-gun visited the temple to see New Year's fortune. This is a place where fortune-telling is done by using a fortune telling paper and floating it in the water. The two people were very nervous when the shaman said that if they were unlucky, the fortune telling paper could sink. The shaman said to Kim Jun-ho, “You can ride the police car one more time in the future. “You have to be careful with your investments,” he warned. He continued, “I have good luck with marriage and children in 2024. “I have to marry my current girlfriend to avoid divorce,” he said, surprising Kim Jun-ho. Kim Jun-ho was very satisfied with the results as he and Jimin were a perfect match.
Then, it was Dong-gun’s turn, and the shaman who was watching Dong-gun’s invocation said, “I feel very lonely. I tend to cry my heart out a lot. “I feel sad because I feel that way,” he said with tears in his eyes. The shaman then said, “I missed the great fortune 20 years ago, and since then I haven’t been able to stand up and it seems like I’ve been stuck in that position.” Lee Dong-gun said, “I’ve lost so many good works, money, and people. For me, if I thought too much and thought about everything before making a decision, it wouldn't have been the right answer. “The wait has gotten too long, so I wonder if this is where I am now, and that’s how I’ve changed,” he confessed his honest feelings. This scene rose up to 16.3% and took the ‘Best 1 Minute’ spot.
Fortunately, Dong-geon's luck was very good in 2024, and when the shaman said that he would be active in the entertainment industry, the studio's Movengers also shook their hearts and congratulated him. The shaman continued, “You can meet and marry a woman over 50 who runs a business. He surprised everyone by saying, “I can see my precious son in the fortune telling.”
At the end of the broadcast, everyone's attention was focused on Lee Dong-gun going on a trip with his father.
